I don't know what I'm doing wrong here but I'm guessing that one of
you smarter people will just see the bug right off the bat. I tried to
convert a simple website to use Blueprint for column layout. I have
quadruple or more checked that my column count adds up to 24 but still
the side bar gets rendered below the center content. If I change one
of my widths from span-8 to span-7 then it stays on the right line but
the changed section is too skinny (as expected). Help! Code below,
thanks for any help.

/* bpcarved.css */
body {
        margin : 0;
        background: #112b63;
        font-family: Georgia, serif;
        line-height: 1.2em;
}
h1, p, ul {
        margin: 0;
        padding 10px;
}
ul {
        padding: 10px;
        list-style-type: none;
}
ul li {
        margin: 0 0 10px 0;
        padding: 0;
}
#wrap {
        margin:0 auto;
        padding: 10px 20px 20px 20px;
        background: #0b204c;
}
#header {
        height: 134px;
}
#content-left {
        margin-top: 20px;
        margin-bottom: 20px;
        background: #fff;
}
#content-center {
        margin-top: 20px;
        margin-bottom: 20px;
        background: #fff;
}
#sidebar {
        margin-top: 20px;
        margin-bottom: 20px;
        background: #ccc;
}
#footer {
        margin-top: 20px;
        margin-bottom: 20px;
        background: #ead9b8;
}
